The thyroid gland is an endocrine gland located just under the Adam's apple in the throat. It controls the body's metabolism, the rate at which the body burns calories for energy. In addition it also controls the body's utilization of fat. A poor functioning thyroid gland can cause excessive fat to accumulate which can lead to weight gain.This can result in a low level of energy, low blood pressure, and a lowered basal body temperature, making one feel colder than usual, especially in the hands and feet. Such a condition is called under-active thyroid or hypothyroidism.

The condition that occurs when the thyroid is functioning below normal is known as hypothyroidism [hypo-under]. This condition can result in a lowered basal metabolism (decreased body temperature) with the symptoms of excessive sensitivity to cold (feeling cold all the time), lethargy (sluggishness or low energy level) and excessive weight gain.

The condition that occurs when the thyroid is functioning above normal is known as hyperthyroidism [hyper-above]. The symptoms involved are the opposite of hypothyroidism, including excessive sensitivity to heat (feeling hot all the time) and difficulty gaining weight.
